Preparation :

In the bowl of a food processor, mix the lukewarm milk with the sugar. Dissolve the crumbled yeast in the milk. Let stand 10 minutes. Add the butter, salt, then the beaten egg. Pour the flour, mix and work the dough with a kneading robot equipped with hooks.

Cover the dough with a cloth and let rise until doubled in size.

Roll out the dough on a floured work surface to about 1cm thick. Cut out circles of about 7 cm using a cookie cutter. With a smaller cookie cutter (or a piping bag), make holes in the center of each circle. Place the donuts on a baking sheet lined with baking paper.

Let rise for 30 minutes at room temperature. Preheat the oven to 180°C. Bake the donuts for 8 to 10 minutes. Melt the butter.

Take the donuts out of the oven and let them rest for 2 minutes. Mix the sugar with the cinnamon. Dip the still warm donuts in the melted butter on both sides, then pass them in the cinnamon sugar, then place them on a wire rack.

Taste the donuts warm or cold or filled with jam, chocolate, compote, pastry cream..

Enjoy !
